CRC Press, a member of the Taylor & Francis Group, has signed a new agreement with YBP Library Services (YBP), the academic division of Baker & Taylor.
Under the deal, nearly 8,000 of CRC Press’ ebooks will be available for purchase from CRC Press through GOBI3 (Global Online Bibliographic Information), YBP's acquisition and collection management interface. Updated with about 800 titles each year, CRC Press currently publishes in over 350 subject areas.
Information on title availability for the full range of CRC Press handbooks and reference works will be accessible by libraries through GOBI3, enabling YBP's customers to view and select individual ebooks from CRC Press with no change to their existing workflow. The result is a fully-integrated library acquisition process, from selection and profiling to ordering and invoicing.
